The Pelham Planning Commission will hold a public hearing
on Thursday night to consider a zoning change for 3.67 acres on Huntley Parkway
associated with The Grand Reserve at Pelham apartment complex. Also on the
agenda is the final plat for the Huntley Parkway parcel.

The meeting starts at 7 p.m. in City Hall, and a work
session will begin at 6:30 p.m.

C&A Enterprises LLC and SAC LLC, both companies whose
representatives are property owners Al Awtrey and Eugene Cole, are seeking a rezoning on the 3.67 acres from B-2 General Business
to PR-3 Planned Multiple Family District.

The development as previously proposed by Steven Corbett
and Juston Trimback would need variances to allow greater density than allowed
by city zoning laws for the land.

"If they're successful in getting the entire property
rezoned, then they will be able to meet the maximum density without requiring a
variance," Pelham City Engineer Jesse Jowers said.

They have proposed constructing a 228-unit luxury apartment
complex located south of the Publix shopping center on Huntley Parkway. Previously
plans called for the apartment complex constructed on a 14.83-acre parcel located
directly south of the shopping center.
